Yeah that was my intro to Vonnegut, it's still my favorite even though he didn't think much of it. Cat's cradle is in second place, Mother night 3rd. But really, nothing I've read by him has been anything but good.

Breakfast of Champions is a good one to start with. Slaughterhouse Five was my first, I believe, and that was enough for me to want to read more.

Nah, I've read a few of his books. My first was Cat's Cradle, which is still my favorite.

If you're a fan of black comedy then definitely check out Dead Eye Dick, that book had me in stitches the whole way through.

It was only $5, and had pretty pictures. Hopefully it's interesting too.
